My younger sister is named Dathan. I’ve never heard of another person named that- as one of 3 people with my name in school I’d have loved an unusual name myself.
It’s a great name despite the biblical Dathan being an absolute swine. I like androgynous style names for girls as well and I think this fits.

It is pronounced DA-THAAN. (DA in Dad + THAAN rhyming with NAAN bread). http://www.studylight.org/lex/heb/hwview.cgi?n=1885.

Dothan is the name of a valley, but I think the meaning is more "faithful" (from "dat") than "fountain."
